January 10, 2017, Spokane Valley, Washington – ACE Production Technologies, Inc., a leading supplier
of selective soldering systems, is pleased to announce that Kimchuk Incorporated has invested in a KISS-
103 selective soldering machine.
The KISS-103 selective soldering system has been installed at the Kimchuk Incorporated facility located
in Danbury, Connecticut and is the first selective soldering machine Kimchuk Incorporated has ordered
from ACE Production Technologies.
“The KISS-103 is a fully-configured selective soldering
platform equipped with “Super Quick” processing speeds,
heated nitrogen inerting system and automated wave height
detection system,” said Kevin Valentine, Sales and Service
Manager-Americas, of ACE Production Technologies. “The
KISS-103 comes standard with the ACE automated fiducial
location and correction system providing single click fiducial
teach capability, seamless fiducial recognition and true
automated alignment and skew correction of the printed
circuit board. In addition, this machine is equipped with a
dual solder nozzle pump assembly that allows two different
sized solder nozzles to operate independently for greater
flexibility and processing efficiency.”
Valentine added, “Other innovative features include the new SWAK-OS machine operating software
which is a revolutionary graphics-based programming and editing machine control system that features
fast program loading and program recall with minimal operator intervention. A major benefit of the
SWAK-OS is the integrated board scanning function that automatically captures and saves an image of a
printed circuit board to the selective soldering program.”

manufacturing community by offering a complete array of services. Their services include printed circuit
board assembly, mechanical assembly, cable and harness assembly as well as engineering design.
